> Test fails occasionally due to a port clash.
> Presumably the port that was returned by Utils.getFreePort(), is no longer free.
> The test creates a ProcessBuilder with the parameters for JMX, including port number, and uses that to create a new Process.
> It should retry with a new port if we fail due to a port in use, for some limited number of attempts.
> 
> main already has some retry logic, but not working:
> it checks for an InvocationTargetException to contain a BindException, but it simply gets a BindException, thrown by TestAppRun.start().
> TestAppRun.start() runs the new process and scans for errors, but on failure its predicate has only seen the first line of a failure, so a BindException is never recognised and thrown.
> Also main does not limit the retries, and handling the port retry in main() is duplicated, for each run of the test method.
> 
> So...
> 
> Make the error-scanning predicate in TestAppRun recognise a "port in use" message and throw a BindExeption.  This is a notification to the caller that it failed, it's not the actual BindException as that was thrown in a different process.
> Make the testDefaultAgent method (the main part of the test) handle retrying with a new port, a limited number of times.
